RONALD MCDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES MILE
Results
SABAJ (2) was scratched from Cup day in preference for this. He was hard in the market first up in the Silver Eagle and ran a solid race having shown plenty of ability last time in. Drawn poorly here, he'll need a good ride but gets the right man on board and has the ability to take this out. HE'LL RIP (13) ran on Cup day and ran well in the race won by Persian Spirit which was in very fast time. That should have him better placed out to a mile on the quick turnaround. NATION'S CALL (11) broke through for a smart win at Moonee Valley last time and should take catching again here if he gets across early. FARHH FLUNG (5) was okay in the Seymour Cup last time but had been racing well prior and this suits. SEVEN'S (14) is off a smart win at Rosehill and can measure up with a nice overall record.
